Recombinant Human IFNW1 (C-6His) Protein

Molecular weight: 21.1 KDaDescription: Recombinant Human Interferon Omega-1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Leu22-Ser195 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.Interferon omega-1 is also known as Interferon alpha-II-1and IFNW1. It is a Secreted protein that in humans is encoded by the IFNW1 gene. IFNW1 belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family. Type I IFNs consist of IFN a, Î2, Ï„, and ω and bind to the type I IFN receptor, whereas IFN-Î3 is the only type II IFN and is specific for the type II IFN receptor. IFNW1 is a recently discovered protein structurally related to IFN-alpha and –beta. It has been shown that IFN-omega 1 similar to that of other human class I IFNs; potent antiviral activity was also observed on cells of bovine and ovine but not of equine or murine origin.
